Thirty four and counting...

...It is now just 34 days until i leave the tarmac at Heathrow. I've managed to have my vaccinations mostly sorted out now so with any luck infected mosquitoes will not be a huge problem!

Really looking forward to mostly the freedom that will come from traveling alone, and the characters i will meet along the way. Reading the "Motorcycle Diaries" really gives a feel of what tramping around South America is like, let's just hope 1953 wasn't too different to 2009!

For the past few days I've been looking for a small digital camera so i can take a few snaps along the way, if you're lucky enough maybe post a few on here every once in a while, to some as proof that I'm still alive, to others simply to see how long my beard has grown!

My good friend from Mexico has bought a few tickets to go see "The Killers", which will be awesome as well as going to Acapulco for a few days, finally some sunny weather, and maybe dare i say; a proper summer?!

We'll see about that once i get to South America!
